Keane defends Pogba as former United captain demands more from Lukaku and Sanchez

22 Февраль 2018 06:11

Roy Keane insisted Paul Pogba is not at the centre of Manchester United's problems as he criticised Romelu Lukaku and new signing Alexis Sanchez.

Pogba was named among the substitutes before he replaced injured team-mate Ander Herrera after 17 minutes in United's 0-0 draw at Sevilla in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 clash on Wednesday.

The France international has dominated headlines amid a reported feud with manager Jose Mourinho, having been substituted in Premier League defeats to Tottenham and Newcastle United.

But former United captain Keane defended Pogba, though he demanded more from the 24-year-old midfielder, striker Lukaku and ex-Arsenal forward Sanchez, who was withdrawn 15 minutes from the end at Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan.
